This text (public domain) must be used for the setting:

Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest,

and make our hearts your place of rest;

come with your grace and heav'nly aid,

and fill the hearts which you have made.

To you, the Counselor, we cry,

to you, the gift of God most high,

the fount of life, the fire of love,

the soul's anointing from above.

Praise we the Father and the Son

and Holy Spirit, with them One,

and may the Son on us bestow

the gifts that from the Spirit flow! 

Optionally, 'Amen' may be added at the end.
